Even though I wish we could be on to KH IV (or KH3DII), one of my favourite things to do in the KH fandom is speculate/theorize.
What do you guys think?
Spoiler ShowSomething that really stood out to me was Sora asking Yozora if this was "the real world". Yozora immediately responded that it was NOT. I find that terminology interesting -- "the real world". What defines "the real world" in Kingdom Hearts? The Realm of Light, Darkness, In-Between, Sleep? The Final World (where Sora seemingly was) exists in the Realm of Sleep, so why wouldn't that be considered "the real world"? Also, take into consideration that Sora just referenced Yozora as the character he knew from the video game Verum Rex. I believe Sora was trying to find out whether he was in the Verum Rex video game (which makes more sense to NOT be "the real world", at least in Sora's perspective).
Now, if that conversation subtly suggests that version of The Final World exists in a video game world (like Verum Rex) which could be seen as a datascape, perhaps that is the first step to connecting Verum Rex to KHUX? Game Central Station is real and NOT a world from the Book of Prophecies; at least from my understanding. If that world connects different video games, could Verum Rex be one of them? Could a keyblade wielder have stayed hidden in one of the games (Verum Rex) until a certain point in the future and then escaped? I think that's how Luxord came into the main KH Universe.
An alternative is Sora believing that Toy Box is still split. Remember the version that Sora, Buzz and Woody were in -- somehow -- made fictional things real, like Buzz's laser. Could the split have caused Verum Rex itself to become real and thus Yozora is also real? What if Sora's/the keyblade's (forced) appearance in the game resulted in some kind of awakening/disruption of the game's programming? That doesn't explain Luxord being Yozora's driver, but it does relate to the question of "the real world".
